NCT02712242

Brief Summary

Backgroung: Various agents are used to reduce post-operative complications associated with palatal donor site surgery for free gingival graft (FGG) harvesting. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on palatal wound healing.

Study Arms (3)

Platelet Rich Fibrin

EXPERIMENTAL

PRF was laid directly on the palatal wound immediately after harvesting the tissue graft and stabilized

Other: Platelet Rich Fibrin

Butyl cyanoacrylate

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Butyl cyanoacrylate was directly applied on the palatal wound after harvesting the tissue graft

Other: Butyl cyanoacrylate

Wet Gauze

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Wet Gauze was placed for 1 minute on the palatal wound after harvesting the tissue graft

Other: Wet gauze

Interventions

Immediate and delayed bleeding, pain, epithelialization, feeding habits and sensation scores were recorded after PRF placing on palatal wounds.

Platelet Rich Fibrin

Immediate and delayed bleeding, pain, epithelialization, feeding habits and sensation scores were recorded after Butyl Cyanoacrylate application on palatal wounds.

Butyl cyanoacrylate

Immediate and delayed bleeding, pain, epithelialization, feeding habits and sensation scores were recorded after wet gauze pressure on palatal wounds.

Wet Gauze
